I played a bit over 20hrs of Beastiball during the playtest and I fell in love with it back then and just knew that on the release date it'd be a game I would buy immediately. There are multiple variations of each beastie, even when it comes to the shinies of them which makes each and every one feel special and unique. While you're playing with the beasties, they can learn new moves from other teammates or even opponents which is just fun and enjoyable to unlock. Your team will also sometimes beef with other teammates, or get along really well and developing a better bond and boosts when they play together... they can even fall in love! I have so many positive feelings towards this game, it's probably the best game I've played in years. I can't not recommend it- and I'm not even interested in sports at all! Buy it, you definitely won't regret it!
